Pick of the Month: Nothing But You, Nicky – LIPS

Nothing But You, Nicky is a name you might not have heard before, but the singer is working hard to change this rather sooner than later! Nicky, who grew up in Japan, but is now based in San Francisco, is preparing the release of her new album. It is supposed to come out next summer, but first, she graces us with the brand new single ‘LIPS’, which will officially be released on the 19th of May, through her very own label Phoenix records.

Nicky’s Single ‘LIPS’ features collaborations with many of the talented names from across the world, including awards winning Turkish singer/songwriter Emine SARI, platinum award winner London-based music engineer Joel Evenden, Turkish music producer Cihat Atlig, and recorded at Shota Osabe’s Studio, California …

After the debut release of the album Meant To Be, Nicky now steps up her game with ‘Lips’. The lovely ballad puts Nicky’s style somewhere in between jazz and singer lounge. The laidback vibe of the song would have easily fit in one of Norah Jones’ millions selling albums and vocally, Nicky definitely has something unique to bring to the table. The warmth in her sultry voice makes you feel at ease the very first time you hear her sing and she knows how to take her composition to a higher level. Not that ‘Lips’ really needed it though. The chorus’ hook is strong and memorable and the sweet lyrics about “All this time without you I need you here, all this time without you I wasn’t me And now, I feel your lips” are well written by Turkish awards winning songwriter Emine SARI. The perfect soundtrack to the dates of all fresh and new love birds out there!

This is slowly becoming one of my go-to songs for that romantic dinner. The musical detail throughout is remarkable. A must have to keep up with the Nicky!

“LIPS” single include an acoustic version of the song accompanied only by a guitar played by Turkish musician Oguz Ertok and produced by UK engineer Joel Evenden. The song received positive reviews from the music critics. The lyrics and Nicky’s vocal performance in the song were also praised.

‘LIPS’ single is also available for pre-order on iTunes and Google Play now!

Nicky is planning to record a new album at the Abbey Road Studios with Turkish and British producers.
